DMLS Metal 3D Printing

Direct Metal Laser Solidification (DMLS) or Direct Metal Laser Melting (DMLM) is a process where powdered metal is melted by a high-powered laser, layer upon layer, to create highly accurate solid metal parts.

DMLS Metal 3D Printing

Advantages of DMLS

The DMLS process offers prototype speeds and production level finishes with little-to-no design compromises. This technology also allows for the creation of complex geometric designs that are only possible with DMLS. Densities of 99%+ can be achieved through this process while maintaining part strength and uniformity.
